Chapter 244 Luo Lingchen's Statement
Chapter 244 Luo Lingchen's Statement
But in the blink of an eye, Luo Lingchen took a deep breath, as if to suppress all the past pain and helplessness back into the depths of his heart, and quickly sorted out his mentality.
He sat up straighter, his eyes becoming calm and deep, and continued, "Now I am really tangled and confused.
Although there is no crown princess in Nanyue at present, the empress's harem is full of handsome men, and she can't be sure when a daughter will be born in the future.
When that time comes, the situation will become even more complicated and unpredictable, and I don't know if my road to revenge will be able to proceed smoothly as planned."
As he spoke, he frowned slightly, his face full of worry.
Shen Li was listening with a frown on her face, and couldn't help but secretly complain in her heart, wondering which author with a wild imagination wrote this bizarre novel world.
Just as she was thinking about it, a light bulb suddenly flashed in her mind and she suddenly remembered the name "Luo Lingchen". Isn't this the male protagonist in the main storyline of the novel she had read during the system task?
I remember that there were many ups and downs surrounding him in the novel, and I seemed to have gained a lot of system points for saving him. It seemed that those things happened near a cave.
Luo Lingchen seems to be only about thirteen or fourteen now? How long will it take for him to unify the four kingdoms? Wouldn't that mean war would rage!
Thinking of this, Shen Li suddenly became excited. He quickly concentrated his mind and dug out a long-sealed jade pendant from the mysterious space.
She held the jade pendant tightly, as if she was holding some extremely valuable treasure, and handed it to Luo Lingchen eagerly. Her voice unconsciously rose a few notches as she said, "Take a quick look. Is this jade pendant yours?" She looked as if she was even more nervous than Luo Lingchen himself.
Luo Lingchen was stunned when he heard this. Then his eyes fell on the jade pendant. He took a closer look and a puzzled look appeared on his face. He looked up at Shen Li and asked in confusion, "Why is this jade pendant here with you?"
When Shen Li heard his question, her face immediately flushed with embarrassment. She bit her lip slightly and said a little embarrassedly: "That...the ugly girl who saved you on the mountain, actually...actually, it was me!"
After she finished speaking, she quickly lowered her head in embarrassment, her eyes dodging, not daring to look into Luo Lingchen's eyes. Her heart was beating like a little rabbit in her chest, "thump thump" non-stop.
Luo Lingchen was overjoyed when he saw this, and his eyes instantly lit up with surprise and excitement, which seemed to dispel all the haze in his heart.
He couldn't help but reach out and grab Shen Li's hand tightly. The force was so strong that it seemed as if he was afraid that she would disappear in the next second. He blurted out: "Ugly girl, I finally found you, hahaha!"
His hearty laughter instantly echoed throughout the house, filled with joy and happiness, making the originally slightly dull room seem brighter and warmer.
But it seemed that just holding hands was not enough to express his excitement at the moment. Luo Lingchen hurriedly walked around the table and walked quickly to Shen Li. Before Shen Li could react, he opened his arms, picked up Shen Li and hugged her tightly in his arms, as if he wanted to integrate her into his own bones and blood.
Shen Li couldn't help but panic and struggled.
Luo Lingchen held her tightly, his chin resting lightly on the top of Shen Li's head. The joyful laughter that had filled him at first gradually died down, replaced by a slight sob. He slowly said, "Shen Li, do you know? When I fell from the cliff and lay injured in the grass, I really felt like I couldn't hold on any longer.
I could clearly feel my blood dripping out, and at that moment, I was filled with despair. I thought, this world is just too difficult, full of calculations, and I live in fear every day. Perhaps death would be better. Death would allow me to escape all this and return to a society where everyone is equal.
Having said that, his arms unconsciously tightened a little, as if he wanted to draw some strength from Shen Li to soothe his once tormented heart.
Shen Li stared blankly at Luo Lingchen's sad face. Thinking of the fear she felt when she first came to this strange world, her heart felt as if it was tightly grasped by an invisible hand. She felt sour and her eyes were filled with tears involuntarily.
The tears were rolling in his eyes, as if they would burst out in the next second.
She reached out her hand, trembling slightly, and gently placed it on Luo Lingchen's arm, patting it again and again, as if comforting a wounded child. She sobbed and said, "It will be okay, it will definitely be okay! Don't be too sad. Those difficult days are over, and things will definitely get better in the future."
Shen Li's thoughts gradually drifted away. She couldn't help but think of the description of Luo Lingchen in the original novel. In the story, that legendary figure was decisive and ruthless, roaming the battlefields, killing countless enemies with a flick of his sword, and finally unifying the four countries with his extraordinary strategy and powerful strength. In her memory, he seemed like just a paper man existing on the pages of a book, distant and illusory.
But she never imagined that this person with flesh and blood, who could feel sad and fragile, was actually the character who once existed only in words.
She wondered to herself again, could it be that Luo Lingchen in the book also traveled through time?
But at that time, I only thought that I was just a small cannon fodder. In this complicated and dangerous world of novels, as long as I could live safely and well, I would be lucky. So I never carefully explored these details at all.
Thinking of this, Shen Li sighed slightly, her hand still gently patting Luo Lingchen's arm, her eyes full of complex emotions, including heartache for his past experiences and a hint of worry about the unknown future.
